Sigma Labs Signs Agreement with Materialise NV

Sigma Labs, a provider of quality inspection systems for 3D metal printing, has announced a collaborative agreement with Materialise NV of Belgium.

According to a press release published in the Wall Street Journal, this signifies both companies’ intent to collaborate both technically and commercially in the integration, production and marketing of PrintRite3D software and its related products for metal-based additive manufacturing.

“By further integrating our PrintRite3D software technology with Materialise’s additive manufacturing software, we believe that we will reach the broader additive manufacturing market sooner and be able to assist a larger number of AM users with achieving their in-process inspection needs more quickly. A software package for additive manufacturing which incorporates our PrintRite3D in-process inspection technology enables users to more quickly achieve rapid qualification with greater process reliability without having to wait until the end of the manufacturing process,” Mark Cola, president and CEO of Sigma Labs, stated.
